Title: Rusty's stuff..
Post by: Dodster on January 14, 2007, 08:19:45 PM
Just wondered if anyone has dealt with Rusty's recently..

If so were they any good or is it somewhere to stay clear of..

Cheers.. :wink:

Well ive done me control arms today and while i was down there i noticed the rear trackbar bracket i put on with the lift and which i had to adapt is bashing my exhaust and is basically a crap job.

I was just looking around and saw that rusty's do an adjustable one at a good price that dont need a relocation bracket.
4wd do one aswell that looks ok..

I can't get the link to work (but I only tried once.)

I think Rusty does some good stuff, especially the basic/agricultural type kit - skids, recovery points, good value springs and shocks, brackets etc.

I have found their shipping a bit more expensive than others but not extortionately so.

Is it the complete steering setup you're looking at getting??

I've got a Rustys kit and its great, but their steering bits are a nightmare as they seemingly think that everyone is LHD.

Does anyone know anything about Rusty's spacer lifts for the KJ?

I'm sorely tempted - being horribly mean and tight and that.
They're only peanuts.

Are you sure you can put that much weight onto a peanut?

With enough peanuts, you could support an elephant.

Even like a fat one or something
